Having fun in the bottle room with mirrors, lights and camera. Not the
best quality photo, should have used a phone! – Gene Ainsworth

Here we go with the November 2013 group of pictures culled from a few of the Facebook sites. It looks like color is really dominating the collection this month.

Brighten Up Your Day – Dave Olson

Thanksgiving bottles and thankful to all my bottle friends and wonderful hobby. Just took these pics. Sun is out but snow on ground time to finish an outhouse now. – James Campiglia

A few nice Pa sodas on a cold day – Tim Henson

Warner’s Artist’s Album – Aaron Hanshew

Bottle Collectors Facebook Group Photo, Mike Brauser collection – Rick DeMarsh

Wanted to share a somewhat fuzzy picture of a few demijohns, some are rather ordinary and some are not so ordinary. Hey Dale, you gotta have a lot of room to collect demijohns! – Gene Ainsworth

Trying to arrange an autumn colored line-up of Drake’s to go along with the season, so I left the 7-up green and cobalt examples out of the picture.Also thinking of asking the neighbors if I can knock their house down so my bottle pictures come out better (: – Gene Ainsworth

Blue Bottles – Keefert Peggy

John Ryan Bottles – Mike Newman

Pleased to add this little blue blown three mold GII-15 inkwell to my collection! Love these little BTM inks… lots of beauty in a tight little package!
– Michael George

Abrabesque Drake’s Plantation Bitters – Tim Henson

Decided to post some diminutive and crude pontils. For size reference, the Chestnuts measure approximately 7 and 5 1/2 inches in height. – Mike Newman

German influence, and probably all from there. But… I still keep coming back to the fact that many American glass factories in the US during the mid-late 18th century were comprised of German glassblowers, and of such traditions. It doesn’t matter really where they were made… it’s just funny that the one on the right is a new acquisition (yesterday!) and came from Manchester CT, one in the center was from a Maine estate, and the one on the left was found in NH by Boo Morcom. They all have differences, but a very similar style… miniature glob with slightly flattened sides. Dark 6:00am pic… – Michael George

Fancy Colognes – Charles Flint

Someone mentioned recently that aqua pieces should not be dismissed.
I agree. – Woody Douglas

One mold maker obviously thought that there should be a sun (or bullseye) in the center of a sunburst! Here are a few of them. – Michael George

These amaze me – look at the darker lips, look at the crudity of the body. And what amazes me, you ask? The gentleman who owns these (150 of them) – doesn’t want to sell them because he still uses them for transporting grape and lemon juice to market!!! They are very likely 20th century – the quality of the glass and the method of lip finish show that. But fascinating that they still weave protective fabric and move product around in these bottles. – Phil Culhane

After giving it a lot of careful thought and consideration I’ve come to the conclusion that I have developed a fondness for early American glass. – Woody Douglas

More Inks – Tom Marshall

The many colors of Hostetter’s. Just some of a few I have gathered. It was my first bottle my grandma gave me. 35 years ago. – James Campiglia

A few umbrella inks I dug in Union Army camps near Charleston, S.C. – Robert E. Bohrn

Morning Sun – Tom Marshall
